If you are interested in the FBI's surveillance of Muslims in NYC

you must watch the last episode of "Viewpoint" with James Zogby.

He had Mike German guest the first segment. German is a retired Fed, and went into detail on how the FBI is doing "ethnic mapping" not only of Muslims in NYC but of all kinds of groups all over the country.

The third segment is with Matt Apuzzo, the AP reporter who broke the NYPD/CIA surveillance story and who is still working it. (I love that Apuzzo broke it because he was one of the top stenographers for the FBI's fake case on Bruce Ivins and it's great to see he's had a moment of clarity, not to mention skepticism, with respect to his government sources. Go, Matt.)

This show will re-air on LinkTV Saturday at 2pm Eastern. It will also go up on the net soon. Here are the links for more info on the show:

I like Jim Zogby's show because he is brilliant, knowledgeable, and more interested in his topic than in his ego. His guests are always first rate. Fyi.

but yesterday when I turned on Democracy Now at 5 I saw that Zogby was just finishing up. Thanks for reminding me of the Saturday rerun.

sometime soon.

I was impressed because there is little or no indication in the corporate media that the FBI is "mapping" anyone but NYC Muslims. And the map German showed told a very different story.
